      Owner

      Eco-Friendly Visionary: As the Owner and CEO of DronePoints, I've spearheaded the development of an eco-friendly drone aerial mapping ground control system that's setting new standards for accuracy, sustainability, and efficiency. With a patent granted in 2023, we're leading the way in responsible geospatial solutions.Aerial Mapping Pioneer: I've been an FAA Part 107 operator and data analyst since 2014, diving headfirst into the world of high precision aerial mapping for land surveying and civil engineering clients. My expertise extends to drone photogrammetric and LiDAR topographic mapping services, catering to diverse sectors, from pipelines and roadway corridors to land development projects and geohazard mapping. I specialize in topographic change detection studies for large mining reclamation projects, where precision and environmental responsibility are paramount.Technical Expertise: My subspecialties include surveying, drafting, and GIS data processing and analysis. From data collection to insightful analysis, I'm here to ensure that the geospatial information we provide is not just accurate but actionable. I learned very early on that generating data accurate enough for meaningful analysis is impossible without reliable ground control placement.Let's connect and explore the world of geospatial innovation together. If you share the passion for precision and sustainability, reach out, and let's collaborate on something extraordinary! Show less
